A: This is a form that a Florida Probate Attorney would need to draft based on the circumstances of your probate, it may be available on the clerk of the court website in the county where the probate is taking place, but this is really a form and probate that you need and should use the advice of an attorney, it is also likely that a court/judge will likely require you to get and use an attorney anyway because there are a lot of filings and proposed orders that potentially need to be drafted and then you have to deal with issues like homestead, exempt property and such as well potentially. An attorney can get this and other documents together that you will need, it is not a DIY undertaking in most all instances and nor will judges usually have much patience for such undertakings.

A: Depending on the case, information regarding the heirs, assets and other statutory required information must be in the form. The form must be tailored by your attorney so that it accurate reflects the facts and circumstances so that it’s a valid Consent. The courts will generally provide a basic form but you should seek the advice of an attorney.
